Let's clear some things up, FYI:

1) We get SWUs/eVIPs after reaching 100K EQM or EQP (or 100 segs)... and when we do, we get 8.

2) The 125K bonus was for AAdvantage's 25th Anniversary, a one-time deal.

3) The "silly .5 point stuff" is for EQP(oints) only, which measures revenue. We can still qualify with 100K EQM(iles), of which all AA fares earn 100%.
